Mondays are hard. Well not if you’re stateside today, if you don’t work retail, you’re probably off. If you really want to chill out, then Moby wants to help you do it with a couple of hours of free ambient music for your chillaxing pleasure titled Long Ambients.

Cool headphones make you look cool, like you’re an actual DJ instead of just some person on the bus streaming music through Pandora (or Spotify if that’s your thing). Nobody has to know that, though. If you want to look awesome when you listen to your music (or podcasts) check out the Layla Headphones, the headphones that are as stylish as you.

Usually when people decide to share their musical stylings with people on the go, it’s a dude with a guitar. Be better than that actually get the party started with the Monster Go-DJ, the totally portable all in one mini studio that fits in your pocket.

We’ve moving closer and closer to more connected homes and technologies and with each innovation you can control more of your life with your smartphone. How convenient!

So having music outdoors in the summer can turn a boring party into an awesome party. Boomboxes don’t always match with the décor and if you’ve spent a ton of money designing an outdoor chill space, you probably don’t want to mess up your nature groove with technology. You can get that sweet sound with the hidden Kilpsch AWR-650-SM All-Weather 2-Way Speaker, the speaker that looks like a rock.

There’s no denying that the sound from a well-kept grand piano can be beautiful. Rich and classic. Sometimes you want that same classic sound but more for this era.

Do you ever wonder what happened to all those original NES systems that we loved as kids? Are they floating around landfills?

Little ears can’t handle big sounds which is a problem because little fingers have a bad habit of turning the volume all the way up.

Earbuds can save your life on a long commute or during a boring day in the office. Ok, not literally save your life but they can save you from boredom. When you have to replace your current pair, you might opt in for Avalon Bamboo Wood Noise Isolating Earbuds, the earbuds made from real wood.
